I’ve only studied two of those issue in detail. In those two, you are dead wrong. So I have no interest in caring about the others you mentioned that I haven’t looked into.
Romney did all he could to stop gay marriage in Ma. The court forced it on the state. Those who believe the fantastic story that Romney somehow broke the law and imposed it — but somehow did so without a single person taking him to court over his violation — is the kind of thing that small children believe before they are introduced to reality.
The only gun law he passed was the pro-gun law pushed by the Ma. Gun groups and the NRA, which relaxed restrictions on the ownership of guns.
Come on. You shilled for Romney all those months and now claim that you never bothered to look into all the postings that laid out his leftwing record as Governor of Massachusetts?
That just isn’t credible, since you were on numerous threads where the facts were vetted for FReepers repeatedly.
As to gay marriage, the facts of the case are irrefutable. Mitt Romney used his executive authority to institute gay marriage, threatening the justices of the peace with firing if they refused to perform the ceremonies, and changing the marriage licenses to a gender neutral state. Not only was he not compelled to do so by the court, he was forbidden to do so by the state’s constitution. To this day, no law or constitutional provision allows gay marriage in Massachusetts.
Romney’s gun ban was a permanent ban on scary “assault” weapons, and his statements at the time of signing speak for themselves as proof that Romney was the worst sort of enemy of the Second Amendment.

Romney signs off on permanent assault weapons ban
- July 08, 2004
“Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts. These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people.”
